[flopticalcube]

Update 1.2 no longer appears here:

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/

It shall be as if it never happened.

EDIT: arn, you really should update the front page. The Tiger link no longer works.

The reason apple pulled the update is after installing the v 1.2 update i installed leopard and it doesn't work. The installer just kind of bricks your imac. Mine took several hours to fix. Apple didn't want to have further problems.

Am I the only one that noticed this reply?

So they removed the solution for Tiger because people can't read and discern the words TIger and Leopard?

No no.. I think what he was getting at, was that those with Tiger who installed the 1.2 update, then had problems upgrading to Leopard. IE, something in 1.2 borked it.

Ahh! I see. Well that makes sense then. Apple borking their own software.

So can we expect a 1.2.1 soon? This freezing has to stop.

This could be true. I had 1.2 installed and it seemed to actually stop my freezing, so I got brave and jumped to Leopard.

First attempt at installing Leopard just left me with a login screen -> blue screen loop and I couldn't get into the system. I had to Archive + Install to get it up and running.

I saw some people talking about different Application Enhancers and such causing this issue, but I had none... so maybe 1.2 did screw something up and this has nothing to do with it not fixing most peoples issues.

Did you upgrade or Archive and Install?

My suggestion to everyone with a freezer now is take it in for repair/replacement until you are satisfied.
